• PromptCraft: 97 Ways I've Used ChatGPT in the Last 3 Years
• THE HEADLINES: ​Gemini can now create music​; How to use Claude in Excel; Altman admits AI will impact job market; Netflix and Warner Bros. join in on attacking ByteDance's new video creation tool; AI succeeds in diagnosing rare diseases
• Tool Spotlight: Moda Is Like ChatGPT's Canvas Mode for Designs

Doing something a little different for PromptCraft today. At Wednesday's ChatGPT in Action virtual training, I shared the slide below, and it seemed to be popular with attendees, so I thought I'd pass it along to you all.

(For best results, you'll want to look at this on your desktop or laptop.)

I felt this was appropriate here because prompts often write themselves when you have a specific use-case and the right context.

By taking inventory of how you're using AI, you learn a lot about what's working and what isn't. I highly recommend mapping out your use-cases in a similar manner, and I hope this helps to inspire you if you're unclear on where to begin.

Moda Is Like ChatGPT's Canvas Mode for Designs

Moda is an AI-powered design tool that generates on-brand visual assets (think slides, posters, ads, and social graphics) on an editable canvas, so you can tweak layout, text, layers, and style instead of being stuck with a “final image” you can’t meaningfully change.

It’s especially useful for marketers, founders, and content teams who need high-quality creative fast, but still want real control over the final output.
